About us

With nearly 40 years of industry experience, Focus Label Machinery Ltd designs, manufactures, and installs all of our machines in-house, offering training, servicing, spare parts, and consumables−all under one roof.

We design, manufacture, and install a wide range of label printing machines, including inline, heat transfer, silk screen printing, and rewinding machines. Whatever your requirements, we can meet them.

Every machine we create is tailored to meet the specific needs of our customers. Our designs allow for new modules to be added, removed, or modified, enabling adaptation to the evolving requirements of your clients.

Our customised label printing machinery provides the perfect solution for various applications, including:

Cold Foil

Cold foil printing, or cold foil stamping, is a contemporary technique for applying metallic foil to a substrate, enhancing the visual appeal of the final product. This process is particularly well-suited for low-cost projects that use gold or metallised ink, which often results in a matte finish lacking the vibrancy of true foil. However, with a diverse range of cold foils available, the creative possibilities are limitless.

Peel & Reveal
In certain labeling scenarios, there may be a necessity−sometimes legally required−to include extensive information and data that cannot realistically fit on a single-label face. This is commonly seen in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, where multi-page labels are prevalent. This trend is spreading to other sectors, offering a creative opportunity for those willing to invest time and technology. Here, Focus shares insights into one of the solutions available for Peel & Reveal label applications using our Flexo and Digital presses. The only limit is your imagination.

Flexible Packaging
Bags, envelopes, pouches, sachets, wraps, and similar items made from flexible materials like film, foil, or paper take on a pliable shape once filled and sealed. Our machinery enables the efficient and cost-effective production of various packaging solutions, including food sachets, protective wraps and films, and meat casings.

Heat Transfers Machines
A heat transfer machine, or heat press, is a device that applies a design to an item using heat and pressure. Typically, the design is printed on a paper or synthetic carrier, which is then transferred to the target item, usually textiles that will come into direct contact with the skin, such as underwear, swimwear, sportswear, and T-shirts.

Meat Casings
Casings are flexible cylindrical containers designed to hold sausage or meat mixtures. Manufactured artificial casings, made from cellulose, collagen, or synthetic materials, are frequently printed to promote specific brands and enhance value. They not only offer a space for product information and manufacturer highlights but also protect the contents during storage.

... And more.

At Focus Label Machinery Ltd, we take pride in delivering exceptional customer service alongside our high-quality products. If you need anything from us, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
